Payment testing notes for Costa Rica
- Currency: CRC (Costa Rican colón). Most gateway APIs expect amounts in the smallest unit, for example 1050 for 10.50.
- Card country: fraud rules often compare the BIN country (CR) with the shopper's IP address and billing address. Generate numbers with a BIN from Costa Rica to test the domestic path, and with a foreign BIN to test cross-border rules.
- Debit vs credit: 35% of the BINs from Costa Rica are debit ranges. If your checkout treats debit differently (fees, installments, recurring billing), test with a BIN of each type from the table above.
- SINPE Móvil transfers are a popular alternative to cards.
Generated numbers only pass format checks: network prefix, length and the Luhn checksum. They are not issued by any bank in Costa Rica, carry no money and are declined by every real payment system — use them for forms, validation and BIN rules, and switch to your gateway's documented test cards for approvals and declines.

Frequently asked questions
Can I generate a Costa Rica credit card number for testing?
Yes. The generator on this page starts every number with a real BIN registered to a bank in Costa Rica — by default 510714 (Banco Nacional de Costa Rica, Mastercard debit). The remaining digits are random and the last one is a Luhn check digit. No bank issued the number, so it carries no account and real payments with it are declined.
Which card networks are most common in Costa Rica?
By BIN count in our data: Visa 44%, Mastercard 28%, Maestro 13%, UATP 12%. Debit ranges make up 36% and credit ranges 64%.
Which BINs do Visa cards from Costa Rica start with?
Examples from different banks: 449830 (Banco Promerica de Costa Rica, S.A.); 414282 (Banco de Costa Rica); 404485 (Scotiabank de Costa Rica, S.A.); 441576 (Banco Popular y de Desarrollo Comunal). See the Costa Rica BIN list for every bank.
Which currency should I use to test payments from Costa Rica?
CRC (Costa Rican colón). Gateway APIs usually expect amounts in the smallest unit (for example 1050 for 10.50). A card from any country can pay in any currency the merchant supports; the issuer handles conversion.
Will these numbers pass a payment gateway?
They pass format checks — length, network prefix and the Luhn checksum — so they are ideal for testing form validation and BIN-based rules. Gateways in test mode want their own documented test cards for approvals and declines; in live mode every generated number is declined because no bank has issued it.
